Hi all. I just want to share something or maybe just want to have confirmed it to me. I feel like I made a wrong decision when I’ve helped my little sister. Here’s the case:
Last April 2010, I received a call from my mother that my sister and my nephew were being abused by her husband. The husband is actually hurting my sister and my nephew. He actually beat my nephew using the buckle of his belt, reason behind is: my nephew is too annoying and playing, take note, the kid is only 2 years old. So when my mom asked me to help them and let them stay in my house, I opened my door for my sister and my nephew. Things are okay until my partner passed away last July that year. Two days after my partner passed away, my brother in law is already at my doorstep and according to him, and he was called by my sister. I was grieving that time and I don’t care about them since that is her choice. But things went wrong when they asked me to let them stay with me a bit longer. That “longer†became months. Things change, my sister just go home in my house every weekend, my brother in law and my nephew stays with me and my daughter. Those days that my sister is out of the house, staying near at her work, my brother in law is also busy in doing all his vices, drinking sessions every night and worse, not doing any household chores. Last December, I asked them to moved out since they are affecting my health and my daughter’s security, they asked for another days to look for a place. But that did not happen until March, 2011, me and my daughter have to move place as we had a fight, me and my brother in law. The worst thing, up to now, they are the one who is living in my house. I reported them in barangay and police. That’s not yet it, my “kind†brother in law, was asking my whereabouts when he found out that I had reported him. He sent me threats and text messages that give shiver in my spine. It is so hard to start all over again being a single mom and no one to ask for help.
I am just thinking now, did the do right thing? Was it really helping my sister not a good idea at all? Are they really insensitive enough? What is a “Family†mean? Why is my sister allowing such action?
I don’t like to think that family members don’t have 'a debt of gratitude'. I just feel that they are so mean and so insensitive. Making them live without paying anything at all.
Hays, can someone advise me what to do? It hurts me so mush that even I sent the letter to move out, they don’t do any action at all. As if I don’t exist. :Scary-Smile::Scary-Smile::Scary-Smile:

belleangelbelle said:As a sister you did what is right to help your sister. But your sister is the one so insensitive and abusive. I don't really know what advice I could give you. Since your brother in law have already sending you threats maybe you should report that thing to the police. Maybe try to ask them to pay their rent at your house if they really don't want to move out.
somecowgirl said:It sounds to me as if they do need to be out. I think that maybe your sister's husband has too much control over her life and the life of their son, and he needs to seek help so that he does not hurt himself, or others anymore. You did the right thing, but what is happening now is not right. You should not have been forced out of your own home for the sake of security for your child and yourself.
